Well me I can cook o. To an impressive enough degree. While I will definitely appreciate a wife that can cook well. I myself need to be able to cook. No time to wait for someone else to come and cook for me .

Let me guess..

It must be said in the Yoruba language lest it lose its effectiveness...

That it?

No. Any language works.

My big brother! What Local production are you talking about?
What are we producing sir?
The Northerners are trying in the area of agriculture. Those that are making effort to ensure stable food supplies are being killed everyday by bandits and gun men.

World bank mentioned rice as Nigerian staple food. They even know the problems of Nigerians more than ourselves. They were able to evaluate the situation from afar.

How is south-south faring in terms of agricutural produce? Regions that has been degraded by oil spillage. What agricutural produce will germinate well in degraded environment?

What about south-west and south-east contributing in agricutural sector sir?
Everyone is all clamoring for white collar jobs.
A particular region in Ogun State; Ofada which is known for homegrown Ofada rice has become a shadow of itself.
Many farm settlements have become residential areas. Many able-bodied youths that love agriculture have all become Okada riders since government has not developed agricutural sector and makes it more appealing for youths to venture into.
We may see world bank advise as evil and manipulative , but in the real sense, it is just a placebo effect on this our present economy. While it does not totally solve poverty problem, it will definitely provide a transient solution to our economy challenges and food inflation problem.

I totally understand your points and you are very right in the points you have made. So right in fact that it is hard for me to make a counterpoint. We really have failed to develop our own economy by locally producing enough or maybe anything at all in some cases.

Gov. adeleke went to discuss the business of pleasure with some thai babes .

They like feeling like King Kong. 🦍

World Bank don start. Liars. All these American businesses don go bribe dem to make dem come manipulate our politicians to open our border to flood their products into Nigeria. If dem agree pere na d opposite of wetin World Bank talk go happen. Local production go dey affected. Jobs will be lost as a matter of fact instead of being created.

hmmm i wouldnt say i am emasculated, in fact the problem is that i cant be emasculated. i am a spiritual warrior. Orunmila baba ifa. thats me. and to harness my powers and have access to universal information in the electromagnetic ethers the angels told me i need to be close to the equator. see, the tropic of cancer and tropic of capricorn where the west exists are spiritually dead zones. Orunmila cannot thrive in a spiritually dead region. the west is my prison and africa is my throne. so i had to return to my throne

👍🏾

Back when newscasters were celebrities. RIP to her.

The federal government should give them 100 billion to fix it.

Cool. Let’s give the dead some money.

So instead of them to sue the military they choose to sue the “federal government.” I hear.

I just dey laff. These people no serious.

Nigeria is already a failed state. I dey wait for anoda round of vawulence we dem go cause. I sure say end sars own go be like kindergarten class compared to wetin dem wan start like dis.

Nice2023:



How...it means u like suffering.

U come to Abuja eh...living here is serene and absolutely beautiful.

No noise.

Complete opposite of Lagos.

I have come to realize that the idea of peace, quiet/silence, tranquility, serenity has become so strange to us that whenever most nigerians experience one or more of them at any given time we call that situation “boring.”

BlueStripper:
At the end of the day, the world will feel the impact of their evil deeds in Africa.

You sanction African countries and impose economic embargos, yet expect them to remain in the land? That's thinking like a typical western bigot.

You spearhead warfare in Sahel Africa for arms export and exploitation of natural resources thereby causing unrest and economic instability. Still in your crazy minds, you expect the people to remain?

Someday, you will see mass migration from all corners. Africans will develop helium balloons just to fly and land in your backyards.

Someday, what you thought was an UFO will be a shipload of Africans coming over to wreck your "Beautiful Homes" .

Your Refugee camps will be overcrowded. Your law enforcement will be overwhelmed.

God forbid. Abeg no use style curse Africa. Africa go dey alright last last little by little. We no go need mass migrate.

Anunakeeh:


You go observe reach 2028 and nothing tangible will a common man benefit from the project except improved gnashing of teeths.

🤣🤣🤣 normally i no expect anything at all as dangote himself don talk the rubbish say na international market rate him go take sell for us. i just wan comment naa ni. 🤷🏾‍♂️

cokeryusuf09:

The idea of using airplane will be an expensive venture, most will be afraid, but it will work if customer are buying things worth million. Buying less and getting it instant will still go to cars

True. But train haulage too is a thing that can be done. It is fast, too. The government and even the private sector can invest in that for fast goods delivery. It will be much cheaper no doubt. Private companies are allowed to own and run their own rail lines in the US as far as I know.

Hmm… Ok. Me I still dey observe. Make I see how e go change things for us first. Then I go know my next step.

1TrippleCee:
Abeg leave Banking, females have conquered it completely. I believe the gentleness, the patience males lack makes the job positions better suited for females. Take the same complain to a guy thrice and watch his testerone levels rise to unprecented levels

You say this forgetting that these men have financial (and other) responsibilities to their families which could sometimes affect their work life while their wives most likely make their own money and keep it for themselves. Besides how much are these people payed nowadays. I have in my own experience had more friendly interactions with male bankers than female bankers. Female bankers can be absolute b****es sometimes.
As to why it appears females are dominating the banking sector it is the money matter itself. We all know that p***y is a money magnet. To make matters even worse the male stakeholders of these banks must have agreed to follow this approach. And in the end we will say the world is set up against men. Who runs the world in the first place? I was at an electronics store one day and a group of females came rushing to me trying to persuade me to buy one of their products. Before I left I had to ask one of the guys there why there are so many females in stores like this as I had been noticing the trend for some time. He simply told me that it was because the female are being used to try as much as possible to seduce customers into buying their products.
Business sha 😄. Money must be made 😀.

what do you want to learn?

This is good. I only hope they make it happen instead of eat up the money or spend 20 years trying to implement what can be done in just 2.

All these arguments. What I have to say is that if the Awori people founded Lagos then there is no such thing as another group of people coming from another place to found what has already been founded — in this case a modern version of the same
place in the same geographical location 🤦🏾‍♂️. They may have significantly changed the way things operated after their arrival but that is not equal to or equivalent to founding the place. You can’t found modern America, for example. You can only found America and maybe later, at a modern time, change things drastically. And if a new founding is to be done anywhere with a name that already exists it usually comes with the word “New” attached to it. Like Mexico and New Mexico.
Just my opinion.

These wicked old people just don’t care about the masses. They just don’t. 🤦🏾‍♂️

i like your designs but money 💵 never dey to build house 🙃. besides the house plan wey i get for my head na “overdo” kind of house if it can be called that. im talking about a bungalow with a basement with all walls (9 inches thick) made of steel-reinforced poured concrete. so basically a fortress.

Wait o. E just dey occur to me say this “renewed hope” phrase na basically “prolonged segè” if you reason am critically. I mean who needs to have hope? Someone in a helpless situation that needs help and has needed it for so long but could not have it so all they do is to start hoping. Now we don dey hope for so long for this country and this old guy suddenly enter the picture come dey talk “renewed hope”. This one mean say him wan restart our segè from from the beginning be dat o so that we go dey hope for anoda long period of time. Omo this is bad.

BreconHills:


Yes.
I saw this coming a few years ago. I invited the Nordic founder of a leisure booking company to come and speak to a group of young founders. What you said above was exactly what he warned them about. Nigerians have hacked fund raising but they have not hacked character and momentum hacking.

Unfortunately we are seeing more and more of the "owambe" "pepper dem" mentality in the founder world. Founders are no longer doing "lean" They are doing optics. In a society where broke shaming is a major catalyst of "success" this is inevitable.

Exactly. A lot these founders just want to raise money for personal gains while trending on TV and the internet. It’s almost like a form of high for them. They must all wear branded matching polo shirts in a super shiny office to, like you said, “pepper dem.”

how many times dem wan revive this thing?

DeLaRue:
The so-called investors have more money than sense, hence the reason they invest in 'tech' companies that are ultimately doomed to fail.

Many of these so-called tech companies have nothing more than brightly coloured offices, a few computers/laptops and a half-baked, bound-to- fail idea that they wax lyrics around and sell to investors as a viable business.

Many of these founders have no tangible business or life experience - yet, misguided investors will give them money.

It is no surprise over 95% of them fail.

This particular company raised $2m less than a year ago, yet they're already out of business. No doubt the founders took very good care of themselves and left the naive investors licking their wounds.

I like your take on this. Nigeria should try to face reality and go into the hardware side of tech. Na apps everybody wan dey build. Dem too like laptop and software and shiny offices. Whenever tech is mentioned in Nigeria the next thing that you hear is words like fintech or blockchain or web portal or digital economy. These people too like shiny stuff. We have so many infrastructural deficit in this country that physical technology can help with and that private sectors can actually solve but we no wan go there. Take for example I once discussed this idea with someone that airplanes could be used as one of the primary means hauling goods from one state to another within the country and he did not see the point in it. Granted it will be expensive at first but it will get cheaper as more people buy into the idea. Imagine someone ordering some goods from another state and having the goods delivered within the same day to him/her instead of waiting to have it packed in a bus that might loose a tire on the road or that could get robbed in transit before reaching its destination. Apart from that we could put enough effort into developing and building new innovative devices even if we still have to manufacture them in another country like china or india. We could have invented wireless charging, for example. We could be the one to develop a device or electronic component that could change the way we see electronics in general. Something like a battery technology more stable and more long-lasting that lithium ion batteries for example. But instead everybody wants to build the next fintech platform or app or whatever. I recently worked as a software engineer for a now-defunct fintech startup that I will not name. They were primarily into the lending part if the fintech thing. The funds they were originally lending out to customers came from microfinance banks they partnered with. But it got to a point where they needed to step up their game and start using their own money to run their operations so they tried and tried to raise funds, having various meetings with many potential investors but it did not get anywhere. At a point one of my bosses told me one thing of the investors who they had a meeting with told him. He said the investor was like the service you are offering to people and trying to raise funds to run in a more software focused way is already being done by traditional banks like GTB and co. So there was nothing special about the whole operation/platform that would make them put money into it. And they were absolutely right. Any business with a proven track record can enter a bank and request for a loan and get it. Any credible business at all. So we need to diversify into the hardware side of tech. And when i say diversify I mean we need to start doing serious research and development in the hardware technology side and even the scientific side which could help in discovering new materials and new compounds used in the manufacturing of these technological devices.
One last thing I want to say to bring this to a close is that some of the people behind these fintech companies are just into this for personal gain. Take the case of the guy originally behind PayDay for example. I heard he spent company money on himself anyway he wanted and essentially just used the millions PayDay raised to enrich himself. I also heard of a serious case of insider trading at Fultterwave.

Brendaniel:
This is the person APC supporters were praising as a performer, 100 million dollars is over 100 billion naira, he served 8 years as governor, where did he get all that money from, what were his businesses before he became governor?

Modified

He is not putting the whole 100 million dollars, he is putting in 2million dollars, however 2 million dollars is over 2 billion naira which is not small money either and also how are we not sure he will not use people to front in raising the remaining to divert attention away from himself.....

whatever the case may be so far the whole thing actually ends up helping startups like he has said. its a good idea

They are not doing this for the good and benefit of their people but to preserve and protect their military regimes from ECOWAS and other external forces.

Be like say u no too sabi wetin dey sup. if u sabi u no go talk dis tin wey u talk

Hmmm…this is just a really crafty move by these higher-ups to keep us distracted for the first quarter of 2024. Dem don start before we even enter the 2024. After that one dem go find anoda tin to keep us busy with while they continue to chop our kontri money. Okay o. No be d first time dem go do am be dis.

cococandy:


No. They should open up to other men. Men should emotionally support each other. Every time you guy gather you’re plotting how to get access to as many vaginas as possible instead of building yourselves up.

You think it’s effeminate to want more out of human interaction other than sexual gratification and ego strokes. If they ask you to go to therapy, you will say it’s not manly. Feminists are not your problem. If anything you need us but you are in your own way.
It’s a pity

👌🏾.
